THC receptors

[gmaskphil420]

I've recently discovered that our brain has THC receptors in it. The brain has millions of receptors for all different chemicals, and THC is one that our brain recognizes, and all other forms of tetrahydrocannibonal.
Scientists say that our body does not produce THC, yet out body's will recognize it.
Could be said for Extasy and firing off the saratonin and dopamine receptors at insane levels. Though our body naturally produces these, and the drug just fires off at insane levels which is not good. Afterward these levels are deplenished and it becomes impossible to be happy.
After smoking a joint, one may become tired or hungry, or happy or something else. And the next day no side affects, maybe a bit tired or sleepy if you over do it.

An Example of THC being productive;
Queen Elizabeth was prescribed it when she was on her period. And let's be honest, that's the best thing you can do for your girl; just smoke her out even of she doesn't want to it will mellow em out so well.

Thoughts?

Pretty sure XTC doesn't deal with your dopamine receptors.

Also there are no reported short term effects from smoking pot aside from your still inhaling smoke which isn't good for your lungs. Now there are no long term reports yet on smoking pot that are considered real research they are still working on it. I am not for or against pot. I smoke it every now and then.

The easiest way to be happy is to not do drugs at all

you are obviously 12 years old, a virgin, live with your mom, and have no friends. No one who isnt 12, a virgin, lives away from home, and has friends would ever say that.

Its been proven that long term use kills your short term memory...I know it does for a fact, after 12 years of smoking weed, I have been diagnosed with a disability in my short term memory...

Eh that's pretty ignorant, I know plenty of people against drugs who are very happy and are not 12, definitely not virgins, and live away from home WITH friends.

Regardless, taking E or M is overall a bad idea if you value emotional flexibility when sober. I'll stick to my weed, salvia, and alcohol lol

It depletes Both dopamine and saratonin levels in the brain, both are the "happy" receptors of the brain.
In any situation Extasy should not be taken.

Were you stupid high for 12 years?

You're obviously a twelve year old virgin who has no friends and the only pussy you get is the one you came out of. You think doing drugs is cool because you're a deadbeat, and nothing more.

Anyone who does drugs to look/seem "cool" obviously is a fucking idiot who needs something better to do in life . . . People do drugs to relieve stress , get that exciting high feeling , or even the relaxing high . Other than that ; if you do drugs you're just a fucking follower .

THC effects your CB1 & CB2 receptors only.
These are not dopamine receptors but serotonin.

Link me to this research? As I said there, to my knowledge, has not been any creditable research published showing the long term effects of smoking pot besides the smoke and its effect on the lungs. You have been diagnosed with a disability? What disability? Most short term memory loss is most likely due to head trauma.

"The evidence of long-term effects on memory is preliminary and hindered by confounding factors."

Seems to be a personal problem and not an accurate representation of the vast majority.

Were you stupid high for 12 years?

on average I smoked 2 ounces a week...I lived in a group home for a while and there we had a lot of weed...After that I would just go to parties and such and smoke everyday...Never did any hard drugs. only weed...I used to have an amazing memory and since I basically quit a while ago, my memory has improved..

Well if you abuse any substance, it will produce side effects.

Here's another fun 420 fact you may not have known.
You know how they say that weed kills brain cells? Well that is because back in the 60's or 70s they tested it by putting a mask on a monkey and pumping it for hours with weed smoke, and simple lack of oxygen caused death of brain cells. But more recent studies have actually showed that weed numbs the brain cells, but actually boost the production of them. Not saying weed makes you smart (Even though I feel I think alot more logically when I'm high, but that's just me) But yeah pretty cool huh

I've known about this scandle for a while, it was the doing of Nixon in his efforts against the "hippie generation"

The entire war on weed is founded on terrible, non-scientific "studies" and fear-mongering. I remember reading that the reason the government began using the term "marijuana" is because it's a Mexican word. And what better way to influence the general American public than associating something with minorities (back then, at least). I don't what's more sad: the government's stupidity or the fact that I've gotten used to it.

Can you provide a source?

MDMA is known to not be physically addictive, yet using any substance that overuses dopamine receptors (called opiates, which MDMA is not classified under) is extremely addictive. I've taken XTC and it never made me feel depressed afterwards or "not-happy".
